DTM is back! Having taken the mechanism, battered it into submission, and thrown it to the wind (courtesy of FORCE-ster) against a frankly toothless Arsenal, we take a trip up to the north of the country, to the hugely accepting and tolerant folk at Burnley Football Club. Still in recovery from the shock that their best player was not only foreign, but also a different colour to the rest of them, Burnley fans were left reeling as long serving manager and human digestive biscuit, Sean Dyche, was shown the door after 305 years at the club, allowing them to replace him with someone in time to beat us. They'll need to get a shift on though. Regardless of Max Cornet (who sounds like the world's greatest ice cream), this feels like a battle between two keepers - Saints stopper, Fraser Forster Nick Pope making a save against West Ham Questions remain unanswered, and also largely unpredictable in terms of what mental formation and team Ralph will put out. Surely we don't go defensive like we did against Arsenal, but do we go back to a flat back four and risk being turd? One thing that should remain is resident madman, and human motivating machine, Lyanco. In reality, he doesn't actually understand the concept of flip-flops or beaches, which is probably exactly what we need at the moment, and will hopefully inspire the others to similar levels of commitment. Yes, Armando, you too. Recently missing striker, Armando Broja. Put in the same levels of commitment and we can come away with points here. Despite the temptation to lose and drop Everton into it. Actually, this one is kind of win-win, isn't it (though I have a £100 bet against some friends who variously support Palace, Brighton and Brentford as to who will finish highest in the league, so...) Next manager odds put Big Sam and Chris Wilder as favourites, both of whom feel really very Burnley. I've had to look carefully through the archives of music to find a relevant song to relay to you, and despite a somewhat titanic struggle, I managed to hack into an ancient Norwegian database in order to reproduce the old song by The Beatles, (Alien) Lucy at the tip of a Diamond. (Alien) Lucy At The Tip Of A Diamond, by The Beatles: Picture yourself on a Bednarek header, With Fraser sized trees and Romeu skies. Somebody calls you, you run very slowly, A goal off Salisu's thighs. Norwich players wear yellow and green, Long balls over your head. Look for the Armstrong with the sun in his hair, And he's gone. Lucy At The Tip Of A Diamond Lucy At The Tip Of A Diamond Lucy At The Tip Of A Diamond Ahhhh Follow her down to Wayne Bridge by a fountain, Where Matty Le Tiss eats McDonald's pies. Everyone smiles as you drift past Tim Flowers Shane Long jumps incredibly high. Multipack Twixes appear in Luke Shaw, Waiting to take Matt away. Pass round the back with your head in the clouds And you're in. Lucy At The Tip Of A Diamond Lucy At The Tip Of A Diamond Lucy At The Tip Of A Diamond Ahhhh Picture yourself with Che holding station, With time to pass clear through on goal. Suddenly someone is there on the goal line, Shane Long twenty five yards offside.

Can only see a defeat here. Or at least I can't see Burnley staying up if they can't win this. No doubt this nice weather will give way to gale force winds and torrential rain by ko.

My friend's great grandmother was called Fanny. Times may have changed, but her surname when she married was Breeze. True story.
As ever a match thread worthy of all three points. 11° sunny intervals with a gentle breeze. https://www.bbc.com/weather/2654264
This match will be difficult to call as there is usually something a bit awkward about Burnley. I have a feeling that Saints will get something out of this and sneak a 1-0 win but I do feel it will not be a free-flowing match . Burnley will not be watning to give anything away whilst I cannot see a new manager in place in time for the typical "bounce.." Getting rid of Dyche was a massive risk and if they were going to make that decision, I feel it was something that should have been implemented earlier. In light of what Dyche has acheived for the club, it looks a bad decision and you wonder what it was exactly that prompted them to pull the trigger.
Burnley Injury list. Erik Pieters - Knee Injury = 25%. Ben Mee - Calf/Shin/Heel Injury = Ruled Out. Johann Berg Gudmundsson - Calf/Shin/Heel Injury. = Ruled Out. Ashley Westwood - Ankle/Foot Injury. Currently Being Assessed . = Ruled Out.
Total win-win this for me. If Burnley win it puts Everton in greater peril and if Saints win great. Unless it's a draw.
I want Burnley to go down so need us to win really or at least not lose. Expecting a loss though as it's pretty standard for us in this situation.
